## Why generate_epub is rated Medium

This tool creates/generates a new digital artifact (EPUB ebook file) which is a reversible write operation. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, or cause financial impact. The severity is medium rather than low because generating files could consume resources or be used to create malicious content at scale, though the immediate blast radius is contained to file creation.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Generate an EPUB ebook from chapter content.' This creates a new file artifact (EPUB format) based on provided input."

## Use case

AI agents use generate_epub to create or update resources in CoWork OS, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your CoWork OS environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
